Hi guys! Has anyone heard from BCLP for their Spring VC? I applied for it on the 16th Oct and did the test and got the feedback on the 23rd but nothing on whether I passed to the next stage (VI) yet. I now it is rolling so I am afraid I already missed my chance.
hey, i applied on the 30th september and haven’t heard anything since receiving feedback on the test. from what i remember at the open day, it seems they do a semi-rolling approach so i definitely think you’d be fine applying mid oct.

Hi! Thank you very much for letting me know! It definitively puts me at ease now. I will keep waiting and hope to hear back from them soon. If I may ask, when did you do the test and got the feedback? For me, I got the invite on the 16th and did it on the 22nd and got the feedback on the 23rd.

I also applied for their open day this december so I am also waiting on that but I think they wait until the deadline this week passes and then choose. How did this go for you?

i applied on the 30th sept for the VS, then got the feedback on the 2nd oct. so it was pretty quick really! my bclp open day was 23rd feb, and I heard on the 10th, so about 2 weeks notice. fingers crossed for you for both!

Thank you so much for the help! Yeah it makes sense then. I did one at Clyde & Co a few years ago and they also told me with 2 weeks notice. I will wait until the end of November then. Please do keep me posted on how it goes for you and I will do the same.
